Native Sony FE Lenses

Most Sony FE lenses use Linear Auto Focus for fast, precise and more responsive AF than is possible from the rotational stepping motors used by the majority of third-party lens manufacturers.

Sony FE G Master Lenses

Sony G Master lenses are designed to combine both the ultimate in sharpness with spectacular bokeh. Their XA Extreme Asperical Lens Elements are designed to resolve an industry-best 50 line pairs per mm and with surface polished within tolerances of 0.01 microns for extremely smooth falloff in out-of-focus areas. They are quite simply the best lenses I’ve ever used.

Sony FE G Lenses

Sony G lenses lenses offer excellent optical quality at mid-tier prices. These premium lenses exceed the optical quality of top-end premium lenses from other camera manufacturers but they lack the 11-blade rounded aperture and molded XA Extreme Asperical lens elements found in G Master lenses.

Sony FE Non-Designated Lenses

Non-Designated Sony lenses are aimed to deliver quality optical performance at an affordable price. In some cases, such as the Sony FE 85mm F1.8 these non-designated Sony FE lenses might even exceed premium lenses from other camera brands.
